Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
  • 1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 tablespoon chopped dill, tarragon, or chives (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 3-pound salmon fillet, skin on, small bones removed
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper
  • 2-3 lemons, quartered, seeds removed

Directions

  1. 1. Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Toss panko with herbs and 1 tablespoon oil.

  2. 2. Place salmon (skin down) on parchment-lined baking sheet. Spread evenly with mustard; season
    with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with reserved panko mixture, patting
    gently. Scatter lemons around salmon and drizzle them with oil.

  3. 3. Roast salmon until it flakes easily, 18 to 20 minutes. With a large spatula, loosen it from skin (which should stick to parchment).
    Transfer fish to platter and garnish with roasted lemons.

    I really liked this dish. It's easy and delicious. I've tried it with salmon and flounder filets with much success.

    I really loved this dish. It is quick, easy and looks great. I baked it at 450 degrees - a little afraid of my pans with the higher heat.
